The producer of this MAGNUM bottle is none other than Portillo. Portillo is a sister brand of the incredibly well-known Bodega Salentein, founded by the renowned Dutch businessman Mijndert Pon. This gives Portillo wines a slightly chauvinistic edge: a subtle touch of Dutch. The winery is located in Argentina's most famous wine region, Mendoza. In the Valle de Uco subregion, the grapes grow with incredible pleasure. Dry air and ample sunshine with exceptionally cool nights. You can imagine that the Malbec grapes thrive here. The vines for the grapes used in this Portillo Malbec MAGNUM have been growing in the fertile Argentine soil for a full forty years.
Even though we're dealing with a large bottle of Portillo Malbec wine here, you can still enjoy the old, familiar flavor Portillo Malbec is known for. Refined, elegant, yet with a raw edge, which only serves to underscore its Argentinian origins. Elegant red fruits like red currants, sour cherries, and soft raspberries form a clear epicenter. But let the Portillo Malbec flow freely on the palate, and you'll be captivated by the Argentinian spirit: fine tannins with a spicy finish.
